Self-Assessment of Competencies and Learning Plan

Residents conduct a formal self-assessment of competencies at the beginning, midpoint, and end of the residency. This self-assessment is conducted within One45 and forms the basis for the individualized Learning Plan and is used to tailor learning experiences within the residency to address specific identified learning needs.

Learning Plan

The Learning Plan is comprised of a list of specific learning objectives that are based on the needs identified by the resident. Typically, residents will have 6-10 learning objectives, each with identified strategies for achieving these objectives. The Program Coordinator will work with each resident to ensure that the objectives are Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-appropriate. The final Learning Plan is posted to the resident's ePortfolio and is revisited formally at midpoint, when any necessary revisions can be made based on the overall progress. Finally, it is revisited at the end of the program to confirm achievement of the learning objectives.
